This was my first experience at Reid’s and I have to say that I was not disappointed.
I ordered the Gut Buster (to go since we are still under partial shut down). The portion size was good enough for 2 meals, and that is saying something for me (I LOVE to eat). It came with 2 ribs, some, pulled pork, a single sausage link, and a healthy serving of smoked brisket.
The pulled pork was pretty standard. Juicy, tender and simply flavored, it definitely needed the BBQ sauce to bring out the flavor more. The sausage link was juicy, and also tender, with a nice snap when you bit into it. I didn’t enjoy the ribs as much as I thought I would; they were tender, but not the fall-off-the bone tender I would have expected. Now the Brisket was by far my favorite! Extremely moist and tender, even without BBQ sauce it had great flavor through out. When I added BBQ sauce, it only heightened the flavor intensity of the meat. Definitely go for the Brisket if you are only looking to try one meat.
As for the BBQ sauce, I actually enjoyed the Honey BBQ a little more than the original. I feel like the honey in the Honey BBQ sauce balanced the tang of the original a little better, and compliment the flavors of the meats better.
Now the Gut Buster is supposed to come with 2 sides, and I thought by substituting the sides with cornbread, it would break even, but they still charged the $1 price, with no other sides. I mean, you are already paying $26 for the platter, so I would have expected that if I weren’t taking any additional sides, they could have thrown the cornbread in on good faith. I did knock off a star for this. If it hadn’t been for that notion, I would have 100% given Reid’s a 5 star review.
Overall, definitely a great BBQ place, worth a visit if you are having a craving for some fantastic flavor!

Best BBQ I’ve ever had! Their meats are so juicy and delicious. We had sweet potato fries, mac and cheese and cole slaw. All of the sides were so delicious! Super cheesy mac and cheese. We had to drive about 50 minutes to get here and we do not regret the decision! Highly recommend if you are a BBQ Lover!

I love love love this little BBQ pit stop.
I had 2 ribs and the collard greens and tried so hard to finish all but was stuffed. Couldn’t even finish the last few bites but omg it’s SO good. The greens are easily the best I’ve ever had, they have a little bite to them but it’s not over powering and the ribs… Come on! They aren’t “overcooked, fall of the bone” they’re “perfectly timed, with a little tug so you know you’re eating meat and not mush, fall of the bone” the exact way a rib should be cooked. I love this place and whenever I get near them, I have to go inside and grab something.

Great BBQ brisket and burnt ends! Mac & cheese is creamy with hit of spicy. Cole slaw goes well with BBQ! Wings were good.
Sorry, I didn’t care for cut fries. Got weak with takeout box. Next time get more slaw. I wish I could add some hot sauce on top of brisket. For extra flavor kick!

So my brother is obsessed with their chop barbecue so I finally decided to give it a try. I wasn’t in the mood for barbecue so I figured I couldn’t go wrong with Buffalo Wings, some Baked Mac & Potato Salad and Greens. The greens were good I ate them first. The Baked Mac kind of looked like baked ziti & it had a twangy flavor like swiss cheese. The wings were hard and I didn’t like the flavor. The potatoes weren’t done and they tasted like mayonnaise and vinegar. I tried to dr up what I didn’t like eating a lil of this and that. He insisted it’s because I didn’t get the chop barbecue. He can enjoy it alone I don’t think I’d try again. I didn’t think to take a pic until I got to what I couldn’t eat. The potato salad was on the side

The collard greens were the best I’ve had. The ribs were for me the clear winner being sweet and spicy! They do have Alabama white sauce though I didn’t try it. It is the best Southern-style BBQ I’ve had in the Northeast.

I’m 38 weeks pregnant and I was craving Collard Greens. The staff went above and beyond to make sure I got my collard greens.
Everything is so delicious and the Collards lived up to my craving. I will be back and recommending to all my friends.

Love this place. The location is ideal when I am in CT visiting family and friends. I’ve had the Pulled Pork with Potato Salad and Corn on the Cob, which was delicious. The last time I was there I had the Ribs and again the food was delicious. I’ll definitely be going again.
